For at least 30 days, the Trump administration will control the application of local law in the capital
On Monday, President Trump ordered the Capital Police Department, which was placed under federal emergency control. He also said that he was activating the National Guard of the capital to deploy about 800 soldiers in the country’s capital.
There is no emergency that occurs in the capital, which is suitable for Trump’s justifications for this step. Violent crime rates are low nodes, According to For the Ministry of Justice data; The videos on Monday highlighted the absurdity of the situation Show Federal agents are patrolling in a quiet national commercial center.
But at a press conference on Monday, Trump occupied himself with a group of former Fox News hosts who turned into law enforcement officials and other right -wing media matches that were appointed to huge power positions. Each of them is alternating to portray the capital as Hillscepa Max’s madness in the sudden need for federal and military action. At one time, the newly confirmed American lawyer, Colombia Janein Peru (Judge Janine, for news viewers of Fox), has reached contracts and apparently “the young bad guys” that exceeded the capital.
In this context, this step is essential for Trump II. There is no emergency to justify what is a rude force play, although there is a low -voltage attempt now to persuade their followers. On the one hand, it is a ridiculous play. On the other hand, it is a severe abuse of the presidential authority that senior officials prevented during the first period of Trump in his post.
Under two executive laws issued by Trump on Monday, Trump blocked the Capital Police for 30 days. Under the law, any extension after that period requires a license of Congress.
Meanwhile, Defense Minister Beit Higseth said that 800 members of the National Guard in the capital will start publishing in the capital next week. Their declared purpose, for every advertisement entitled “Restoring the Law and order in the province of Colombia”, is “the treatment of the crime epidemic” in the capital
It is not quite clear the practical effect that the step will make on MPD. Peru said that two Trump administration officials will honor the police: Terry Cole, Dia commissionerHe will lead federal control while the American Field Marshal service president Gady Serralta will oversee leadership and control. Trump joked with Serrata in the noise that he would “divorce him” if it turns out to be weak in the next few weeks.
Trump attacked the supervision of the capital’s officials on the police department in a declaration declaring the decision. There are many paradoxes here that they must count, but there is a great relationship with January 6. Trump, criminalizing a convict, pardoned hundreds of people who attacked Capitol and MPD police officers in an attempt to keep him in power after losing the 2020 elections.
But for some Trump tools, the point is not the law and order as it proves political control. Chris Rovo, conservative influencer, The name For the “campaign” similar to the strong El Salvador Nayeb Bokil.
This is the second case in the Trump administration for nearly eight months that he sent to the forces as a force against American civilians. In Los Angeles, the administration was able to skirt that calls for the rebellion law by identifying the National Guard in California on a questionable basis and through doubtful means of equality. The Court of Appeal approved the decision after the provincial court judge stated that it was illegal.
But it may have the intended effect. Local protests in Los Angeles calmed down against ice raids after Trump ordered the army to accompany immigration authorities throughout the city. The National Guard and Related Publishing of the US Marine left in a supportive role of the city last month.
It is a testament to the resistance of a little resistance that Trump has faced for moves, in any other modern administration, will be considered ridiculous violations of the non -fortified power of anything outside the narratives of urban decline, which represents an essential element in the right -wing media. In 2020, at the height of George Floyd’s protests, Trump officials – but eventually refused – in the MPD federal. A report from the Ministry of Justice found last year that Mayor Morel Bousser ordered the police to respond to the riots while he was retracting a statement from the team members at that time, Mark Midoz, that Trump will take over the agency, according to the report of the Ministry of Justice last year.
Now, there is no such fear. It paves the way for further publishing operations for federal forces, increasing federal control, military operations, and local law enforcement.
“I will search for New York a short time ago,” Trump said before he calmed similar threats about Chicago, and again, Los Angeles. “Let’s do this, let’s do it together.”
